Greetings all !!
I'm thinking of a double glazed timber bi-fold door 2400 X 2100. I have seen some pretty nasty installations where the door sometimes gets held/jammed on the tracks, does not open fully and smoothly, etc.
I believe i will have to be ahead of the curve and let the installer know exactly what parts components i need to go in there. Eg: type of the tracks, some adjustment screws ( not sure what they are called ), the rubber for insulation between the bi-folds.
What components should i be looking at apart from the door frame and the glass that goes into it ?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards

Any help is greatly appreciated.
It was once mentioned on the "Weekend Woodies" (renovators and builders advice show previously on ABC Sydney 702) that people rarely open bi-fold doors, so you are better off installing sliding or stackers doors. That is the road we took when we built our house, with no regrets. So my advice is to see if you can install sliding or stacking doors instead of bi-folds.

Engineering timber is certainly a less fuss option, times cheaper to supply and install and better withstands humidity.
